School Governance Committee
The School Governance Committee
The School Governance Committee at SHAPE meet regularly and have a strong representative voice of the parents and wider community in helping to run the school. SGC members enjoy meeting with pupils, parents, teaching staff and the school leadership team to find out how the school is performing, what life is like here for all involved and provide friendly yet critical advice and support.
The committee plans and delivers a programme of events and actions to monitor, challenge and support the overall practice of the school. Each SGC member is assigned a sub-committee, linked to aspects of school improvement, to provide positive contributions to these key priorities. This provides a strong level of quality assurance and involvement from the community.
